Lk 9:7-9
Find Him in Prayer
7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was going on. And he was perplexed because some were saying that John had been raised from the dead, 8 others that Elijah had appeared, and still others that one of the prophets of long ago had come back to life. 9 But Herod said, “I beheaded John. Who, then, is this I hear such things about?” And he tried to see him.
We're pretty sure that Herod's interest in seeing Jesus was simply to satisfy his curiosity and perhaps witness a miracle. On the other hand, many believers gather daily to search and pray over the Scriptures to get a closer look at Jesus, to listen more attentively to his teachings and find support and encouragement to apply them to their lives. May we listen to the invitation God may be offering to us to spend more time with him by meditating on his words and deeds.

Dear Jesus, may I take the time to seek you sincerely, not as Herod, and allow you to feed my soul with your words. Amen.
